    I debated between HP and Wireless... decided on here because seems more oem specific.

    My DV2000t has the standard wireless card. b/g no bluetooth or A.

    The drivers don't tell me much about what card I have other than "Broadcom 802.11b/g wlan"
    and the drivers have bcm43xg11

    The advanced driver properties does offer "Afterburner" and IBSS 54g Mode and within that I see B, 54g auto, and 54g performance.

    Those two options seem to point to super g abilities but =\

    Oh has anyone found a N card that will work with the DV yet? I don't intend to mod my bios to be able to use an atheros.

    I am also interested but I would rather wait for the standard to come out if they will ever. Does anyone know when they will come up with the N Standard?

    I believe they say it will be late 2007. But its taking incredibly long on their part in my opinion. Im getting 54mbit on my laptop now and I have a new Draft N router but the highest I have seen is 54mbit I thought it would at least be able to handle the 108 on this laptop
